Frank Raines OHV
« on: May 16, 2008, 03:19:18 PM »
I heard about this place from a friend of a guy who goes. So, I would like to get some first hand info.
http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/FrankRaines/index.shtml#FrankRainesCountyPark

How is it? Small or large? Is it still open? Etc.

Pictures?

Thanks :beerchug:

the creek bed which is the fun part is closed.  the rest of the park is just dirt and hill climbs.  not bad if you like that stuff.

If the creek bed is closed then its not worth going.  The creek was the best part.

Its not just hill climbs its very steep and tall hill climbs. There are at least 2 destroyed trucks that have been left there after rolling down a hill. No creek = no fun at all. Its really small too.
